The subject of this thesis is a translation and a traductological analysis of four short stories present in Novelle per un anno written by the worldwide famous italian writer Luigi Pirandello. In Luigi Pirandello: Nobelova nagrada za književnost 1934. published in 2001 is present a list of short stories from Novelle per un anno translated into Croatian, according to which a choice was made to translate the next four short stories: I galletti del bottajo, Chi fu?, Tu ridi and Il figlio cambiato.
The amount of short stories translated into Croatian is unjustifiably small, although the short stories of this Nobel Winer, narrator of indoubtable capacity, deserve much more attention. After the translation of previously mentioned titles has been done, the next step was a traductological analysis. There have been exposed the traductological changes made on the examples of the translated short stories. These were necessary from translator’s point of view and due to that a special attention was payed into keeping the Pirandellian narrative thread and the spirit of that time. Beside these changes it have been explained the choices in relation to the titles, also it have been listed the annotations concerning dialects.
